The Architecture of Control is blog devoted all of the design that is meant to limit the actions of the users. The blog sums up its raison d'etre nicely.Increasingly, many products are being designed with features that intentionally restrict the way the user can behave, or enforce certain modes of behaviour. The same intentions are also evident in the design of many systems and environments.
The parkbench above is one the new kind that is designed to uncomfortable. Why a public body would hate its public so much to install this abomination is explained in this ad copy from Belson.
Redesigned to face contemporary urban realities this bench comes standard with a center arm to discourage overnight stays in its comfortable embrace.
